Chapter 1060 Additional Report
The noise of the celebration party seemed to be separated by an invisible barrier, and the air around Chen Yang suddenly became solemn.
Because Pierce was making a video call, everyone around him could feel the shock of the medical team and the huge turnaround in Lawrence's condition from critical to stable from Pierce's excited and trembling voice.
Pierce was indeed shocked. Chen Yang had used acupuncture to treat Yamamoto Ichiro before, but this time he used Chinese medicine prescriptions.
It was Pierce's first time to come into contact with Chinese herbal prescriptions. He never expected that Chinese medicine decoctions could have such an immediate effect.
Not counting the time it took to decoct the medicine, only half an hour passed after Lawrence took the medicine before his condition began to improve and his hands and feet became warm again.
"Dr. Chen, you are simply the hand of God!" Pierce's voice came through the microphone and was clearly heard by Borg, Muller and others who had gathered around.
"After following your plan and performing moxibustion simultaneously, Mr. Lawrence urinated a large amount of urine and his abdominal distension was significantly reduced. He can now take off his ventilator mask and breathe on his own! His blood oxygen saturation is stable at 95%! This... this is incredible!"
Even though Borg and the others had already witnessed Chen Yang's methods, they couldn't help but be moved again. How could a critical condition of acute heart failure be reversed so quickly with just a few Chinese herbs and moxibustion? This was completely beyond the conventional knowledge of modern emergency medicine.
"What about BNP? Have you checked it again?" Chen Yang's tone remained calm, and he did not relax at all because his condition improved.
"I just had my blood drawn and sent it for testing, but the results aren't out yet."
Pierce quickly said, "But Mr. Lawrence's mental state has improved a lot. He even said that the big stone in his chest seemed to have been lifted!"
"Continue to observe and take medication according to the original plan. Pay attention to monitoring blood pressure and electrolytes, especially blood potassium, and replenish them in time." Chen Yang instructed carefully, "Keep in touch at all times."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yang found that the surroundings had become quiet at some point. Many experts attending the cocktail party looked over curiously. Obviously, Pierce's excited voice just now attracted a lot of attention.
"Chen, is it Mr. Lawrence again?" someone asked curiously.
"Well, the acute heart failure worsened. I took some Chinese medicine and it is temporarily stabilized." Chen Yang said lightly, as if he was just dealing with a trivial problem.
But the people around him couldn't calm down.
"Can Chinese medicine... correct acute heart failure so quickly?"
"I just heard BNP and blood oxygen saturation... Is this true?"
"Could it be that Traditional Chinese Medicine is also so effective in treating emergencies?"
Murmurs of doubt, curiosity, and shock spread among the crowd.
He Yonghua looked at Chen Yang's calm profile, feeling a lot of emotions in his heart.
He knew that behind Chen Yang's seemingly casual "use of some Chinese medicine" was a precise judgment of the condition and an extreme grasp of the medicinal properties and dosage of Chinese medicine. A slight mistake could lead to a huge mistake in the result.
At this moment, one of the organizers of the cocktail party, a senior medical professor with silver hair, came over and said to Chen Yang in a serious tone, "Doctor Chen, excuse me for interrupting you. We, the judges, and WHO officials have just had an urgent meeting and have an unwelcome request."
"Please go ahead." Chen Yang nodded.
"Mr. Lawrence is not only a financial giant, but also a major donor to global medical research. His illness concerns many people."
The old professor said in a heavy tone, "We were shocked and impressed to learn that you have stabilized Mr. Lawrence's condition with Chinese medicine."
"The organizing committee hopes to obtain your permission to include the complete case of your remote treatment of Mr. Lawrence as a special supplementary report at the summit, demonstrating to global colleagues the potential of Traditional Chinese Medicine in the field of critical and emergency medicine."
"How about I take up two hours of your time tomorrow morning?"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sound of people gasping for breath all around.
It is an extremely rare honor to submit a supplementary report after the summit, which also means that the organizing committee highly recognizes and attaches great importance to Chen Yang's rescue operation!
Everyone's eyes were focused on Chen Yang.
Chen Yang hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement: "Okay. Medical progress requires communication and verification."
"It would be a good thing if we could take this opportunity to let more people objectively understand the role of traditional Chinese medicine in emergency medicine."
Naturally, there was no reason for Chen Yang to refuse such a thing. In fact, not only did Chen Yang have no reason to refuse, but this was also a rare opportunity for Chen Yang.
Chen Yang's purpose of coming to New York this time is actually to promote traditional Chinese medicine by using his achievements in the field of surgery.
If Chen Yang's level of surgical expertise was not a stepping stone, these Western medical experts and surgical authorities would not have accepted Chen Yang, let alone given him the opportunity to speak. Of course, Chen Yang would not even be qualified to attend such a meeting.
This is also what makes Chen Yang special.
Although Chen Yang was looking forward to such an opportunity, he couldn't show it too obviously. His expression remained calm, and he even had to think about it and act embarrassed.
Well, I'm very pressed for time.
To be honest, when it comes to national sense of belonging, if the Chinese nation says they are second, no one would dare to say they are first.
Therefore, most Western doctors would not simply think of Chen Yang as an ambassador for promoting traditional Chinese medicine. Most people still put their own interests first.
"That's great! Thank you very much for your generosity and contribution to the medical profession!" The old professor excitedly shook Chen Yang's hand.
The news spread quickly, and the party that was about to end became lively again.
Many people decided to change their plans and stay to hear this unexpected follow-up report.
At eight o'clock the next morning, the main venue of the summit was once again packed.
Chen Yang stood on the stage, and the large screen behind him displayed the processed information of Lawrence's medical condition, photos of his tongue coating, and photos of Chen Yang's handwritten prescriptions and moxibustion plans.
Without exaggerating, Chen Yang used a calm and objective tone to elaborate on the TCM pathogenesis analysis of Lawrence's condition - "heart and kidney yang deficiency, water and dampness overflowing";
It explains why when Western medicine’s cardiotonic and diuretic effects are ineffective, the traditional Chinese medicine approach of “warming yang and promoting diuresis” is adopted;
The author explains the roles of each herb in the prescription and its supporting role in modern pharmacological research (e.g., the cardiotonic effect of aconite, the improvement of energy metabolism by ginseng, and the diuretic effect of Wuling Powder).
and the integrated Chinese and Western medicine principles for moxibustion point selection (stimulating specific points may regulate overall function through the neuro-endocrine-immune network).
His report was easy to understand and had both the theoretical framework of traditional Chinese medicine and the explanation in modern medical language. It had clear logic and a complete chain of evidence.
Finally, he showed a comparison chart of Lawrence's key physiological indicators before and after taking the medicine - BNP decreased, blood oxygen saturation increased, liver enzymes dropped... The data doesn't lie, and the steep upward curve shocked everyone!
"...Therefore, we believe that in the field of critical care, Chinese and Western medicine each have their own strengths."
"Western medicine excels at precise intervention and life support, while Traditional Chinese Medicine is stronger at overall regulation and supporting vital energy. The two are not substitutes, but rather complementary. In complex cases like Mr. Lawrence's, the combined thinking and methods of Chinese and Western medicine may open up new prospects for us and provide a '1+1>2' solution."
(Well, many book friends have commented on how Chen Yang should use English in traditional Chinese medicine. After all, this is a novel, so we just want to have a good time and don’t need to delve into it...)
